Coaching for Strategists

  • What is it?

    Tailored, 1-1 custom- designed sessions designed for advertising and creative agency strategists at every stage of their career.

    Whether you're just starting out and want to learn new skills, preparing for leadership, or refining your strategic approach, coaching offers the guidance, tools, and support to help you grow in your strategy career.

  • Why coaching for strategists?

    Strategists don’t have much access to coaching tailored to their unique challenges and opportunities. Unlike account and creative professionals, who often have resources designed to help them grow, strategists are left navigating their careers with little structured support.

    Strategists (and especially intermediate/senior/directors) are left to figure it out on their own. Not ideal!

    Coaching for strategists is designed to fill that gap. Built on a deep passion for the craft of strategy, it offers honest, rigorous, and actionable feedback to help you refine your skills, strengthen your impact, and advance with confidence in your career.

  • Who is coaching for?

    The coaching offering has been designed specifically with Intermediate/Senior/Director strategists in mind.

    While there are a ton of “intro to planning” resources out there for those brand new to strategy or junior strategists, there is very little for those strategists further along in their career.

    Intermediate strategists
    Intermediate strategists often struggle with getting to the next step of their career. We’ll put a plan in place to help you break through to the next level.
    Coaching can help intermediate strategists as they shift to more strategic (and less tactical) work.

    Senior Strategists and Directors
    Coaching can help Senior strategists sharpen their ability to inspire and align teams, hone their executive presence and extend their influence and expertise with senior clients.
    Coaching at this level is about helping Directors and Senior strategists lead people, not just projects, and helping the agency with overall direction and strategic vision.
    Coaching can help identify blind spots, reframe challenges, and unlock new growth opportunities.

  • How does it work?

    We begin with a :30 free introductory call to discuss your needs, and the role that coaching can play to help you in your strategy journey and career.

    We’ll talk about the next step you want to take, the skills you want to work on or current challenges you are dealing with. The goal is to get crystal clear on your goals and make the best use of our time working together.

    From there, we decide on the approach that makes the most sense:
    i. Single 1.5 hour session
    ii. Package of 3 × 1.5 hour sessions
    iii. Package of 5 × 1.5 hour sessions.

    In terms of the kinds of topics coaching can cover, they include the following:

    -training and skills development (brief writing, presentation deck, storytelling, writing)

    -portfolio review and development

    -interview preparation

    -presentation training

    -storytelling for strategists

    -career planning

    -live project/brief review and collaboration
